I emerged the win32codecs and then tried to emerge mplayer, but in the configure I see : Checking for Win32 codec DLL support ... no and in the summary before the "make" : Failed to find a Win32 codecs directory! (default: /usr/local/lib/codecs/) Create it and copy the DLL files there! You can download the codecs from our homepage at http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/ The ebuild version is mplayer-1.0_pre6-r2 , but I already had this problem with former versions ! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge win32codecs 2.emerge mplayer 3. Actual Results: Mplayer Ebuild doesn't find the win32codecs Expected Results: Be able to use the win32codecs with mplayer Portage 2.0.51.19 (default-linux/x86/2005.0, gcc-3.4.3-20050110, glibc-2.3.4.20050125-r1, 2.6.10-cj5 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.10-cj5 i686 Mobile Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.06GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.6.10 Python: dev-lang/python-2.3.5 [2.3.5 (#1, Mar 11 2005, 23:02:02)] distcc 2.18.3 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] ccache version 2.4 [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.3.5 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.6.3, 1.5, 1.9.5 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r6 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.14 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.8.1-r1, 2.6.8.1-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS=" -g -pipe -march=pentium4 -mtune=pentium4 -mfpmath=sse,387 -O2 -frename-registers -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math -fforce-addr" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/bind /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS=" -g -pipe -march=pentium4 -mtune=pentium4 -mfpmath=sse,387 -O2 -frename-registers -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math -fforce-addr" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig buildsyspkg ccache cvs distlocks fixpackages nostrip sandbox sfperms userpriv" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.proxad.net/mirrors/ftp.gentoo.org/ http://ftp.belnet.be/mirror/rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo/" LANG="fr_FR.UTF-8" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/media/data/portage" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.belnet.be/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X aac aalib acpi acpi4linux aim alsa anthy audiofile bash-completion beep beepmp bidi bitmap-fonts bluetooth bmp bonobo bzip2 bzlib canna ccache cdparanoia cdr cdrom chasen cjk crypt cscope cups curl debug dga dict directfb dpms droproot dts dv dvb dvd dvdread emboss encode escreen esd ethereal evo evo2 examples exif faad fam fb fbcon ffmpeg figlet flac flash font-server foomaticdb fortran freetype freewnn ftp gcj gdbm gif gimp gimpprint gkrellm gmail gnome gpm gs gstreamer gtk gtk2 gtkhtml guile hal http iconv icq ieee1394 image imagemagick imap imlib imlib2 ipv6 jabber jbig jpeg kakasi libcaca libg++ libwww live lm_sensors logrotate mad maildir matroska mikmod mixer mjpeg mmx motif mozilla moznocompose moznoirc moznomail mozsvg mp3 mpeg mpeg4 mplayer msn ncurses nls nntp no_wxgtk1 nptl nptlonly nvidia objc offensive ogg oggvorbis opengl oscar oss pam pam_chroot pam_timestamp pcmcia pdf pdflib perl pic playlist png pnp ppds print profile python qemu-fast quicktime readline real recode rss rtc ruby samba savedconfig sblive screenshot sdl sendfile sftplogging skk slang smtp sndfile sox speex spell sse sse2 ssl svga sysfs tcltk tcpd tga tiff transcode truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb userlocales utf8 vcd vidix vim vim-pager wifi xanim xchatdccserver xfs xine xinerama xml xml2 xmms xosd xpm xscreensaver xv xvid yahoo zlib linguas_fr" Unset: ASFLAGS, CBUILD, CTARGET, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS
